The Pizza Delivery States of Infected Mushroom is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by IM with an iron fist, and renowned for its smutty television, soft-spoken computers, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, cheerful population of 17.737 billion citizens are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The relatively small, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Crayon City. The average income tax rate is 62.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Infected Mushroomian economy, worth a remarkable 5,835 trillion Kefkaris a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Pizza Delivery, Soda Sales, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 329,024 Kefkaris, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Infected Mushroom's national animal is the Pixie, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
